The Human Condition: Anthropology in the Teachings of Jesus, Paul, and John

This book, alone of its kind, raises basic questions about the way the New Testament understands human existence. Udo Schnelle shows how Jesus expresses the relation between human beings and God and how Paul and John develop their theological thought to a substantial degree as anthropology. Significant, provocative differences between the New Testament and contemporary understandings of human life emerge with clarity.
